Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Sunday morning? Mom is so sorry that I have not written to you in 2 days but Mom has been so sick and I am still not feeling the greatest but I had to go on my computer to pay a few bills so I decided to write to you right now because once I am done I will be turning off my computer for the day and not doing anything except laying on the couch watching TV and napping just like I have been for the last 2 days. Mom has been going to bed between 7 -8 pm the last 2 nights as well. I did get some much needed sleep last night which was great because Friday night I got about 3 hours rest. I am not sure what got me but all day Friday I wasn't feeling good so I did nothing but sit on the couch and watch TV. By 5 pm it all started to hit me. I was dry heaving for the most part up until around 7 pm and then it was in full mood until after 1 am. The vomiting was the worst I have ever had. I think by 1 am Saturday morning it was both ways as well. I was so drained. I still am. Mom has not ate anything for 3 days. I have been drinking water and ginger ale. I know you have been with me so you are seeing it all. Please continue to be with Mom. I need you my sweet precious son. Thank you. 
 This weekend was suppose to be fun for Mark and I but because of everything that has happened the fun stuff is going on without me. Mark went and is hanging out with his brother and his girlfriend today. They have not seen each other in 4 years. I am happy for them but I really wanted to be a part of it. It sucks. They are headed to downtown and the city area for lunch, tourist stuff and then dinner later. Mark will be home later this evening. Mom is going to hang here with the pups and watch a couple of movies to past the time. Like I said I will probably take a few cat naps as well. Mom is hoping to have something to eat as well. It will be baby steps for sure...lol.
 As you already know I have not done any talking on the phones int he last 3 days or nights. I don't plan on it today or tonight either. Mom will hope to have some updates for you during the week for sure. Mark is already booked all week and Mom still has school. I am hoping to be able to do some studying tomorrow but there are no promises there at all either. It just depends on how I am feeling. I sure hope that your day and night is everything that you need and want it to be. I hope that later this evening when it is time for Mom to go to bed I see you in my dreams. I will whisper to you as I always do later this evening and I will light your candle tonight as well. Smile for Mom when you hear me and I will smile to you pumpkin. Mom is going to go relax now because I am pretty tired. Always remember that you are forever in my heart, mind, body and soul. You are my hero and the wind beneath my wings. I miss you so much and I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. I will be back tomorrow with another letter to you and hopefully I can write to you to tell you that I am bouncing back and really a lot better. Until tomorrow comes..... good night and sweet dreams tonight.
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!

Here is the prayer for the day:

In that day this song will be sung in the land of Judah: We have a strong city; God makes salvation its walls and ramparts...Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord, the Lord himself, is the Rock eternal. Isaiah 26:1-4, NIV

Lord our God, help us find the path that we may walk with confidence because you are our Father. Banish all thoughts that try to depress us. Let your Spirit drive them away. May our hearts become quiet before you, because you, the Almighty, guide everything for the good of people on earth. Everything will lead to thanksgiving, to your praise and glory. Be with us at all times, day and night. May our hearts always exult afresh, rejoicing in you, our God and our Savior. Amen.
